fenni wish people would stop naming their (non-laboratory) startup companies/shared space "* labs"14:12
kanzurewhat if they do labwork in their shared space14:13
kanzurealso, i wish .net/mono fans would read stuff like this: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/java-trap.html14:14
fennthen i have no problem with it14:19
fennbut it seems like if you actually had a lab, you wouldnt name it "master evil scientist labs" because people might get confused and think it's a startup company or something14:19
kanzureso you should name it BioLogic Inc. and people will then be unconfused and know that it is a science lab?14:20
fennright14:22
kanzurei am thinking about helping treadwell buy a laser cutter14:24
